Title: Programmable switching unit
Inventor: SIMMONS ROBERT G
IPC: G04G15/00
Filed: 1993-07-26
Abstract: A programmable switching unit which may be incorporated in a switch for installation in a standard switch box, or into a single or multi-adaptor for connecting one or more appliances to a wall outlet, the unit being switchable between a first, learning mode, in which it updates a table of transitions between ON and OFF states of a controlled appliance over several days, and a second, automatic mode in which it generates a sequence of switching operations over a subsequent days. The sequence is generated by logically combining the times of switching events store over several days, and timing of each individual event in the sequence is subject to a limited random time shift. <IMAGE>

Title: A device for the pulsed pumping of liquids, particularly blood
Inventor: FRANCO MONTEVECCHI
IPC: A61M60/851
Filed: 1996-02-05
Abstract: A device for the pulsed pumping of liquids, particularly blood, has a body in which are formed a pumping chamber in which a pulsed flow is imparted to the liquid, an inlet duct upstream of the pumping chamber and communicating therewith, and a delivery duct downstream of the pumping chamber and communicating therewith. The shape of the pumping chamber is annular. Two valve members constituted by lip valves are provided for regulating the one-way flow of fluid in the body from the inlet duct to the pumping chamber and from the latter to the delivery duct. A diaphragm disposed within the pumping chamber is movable between a first position and a second position in a reciprocating manner such that pulsed flow is imparted to the liquid. The diaphragm has an annular configuration and a substantially "C" shaped cross section. The pumping device may be incorporated into a cardiopulmonary bypass device which includes a venous reservoir, a heat exchanger and an oxygenator. <IMAGE>

Title: Control system for automatic doors
Inventor: CABISTAI VICTOR JUAN BOJ
IPC: G05B19/042
Filed: 1996-01-17
Abstract: A safety system the structure of which is based on a microcontroller (1) which carries out readings of the orders to open (LA) and to close (LC), (together with the speed (V) of the vehicle), a relay for the order to close (2) governed by a transistor (5), and a relay for opening (3) governed by a transistor (6), these two relays and their transistors (5) and (6) being powered by another transistor (7). The system carries out periodical supervision thanks to clock signals generated by the microcontroller (1) of the state of the switching transistors, checking that the orders given are definitive and coincide with the action that has been brought about, entering if this is not the case into a routine of internal stoppage of the microcontroller (1), shutting off motor traction, and bringing the relay contacts into a safe position which prevents the untimely opening of an automatic door. In the case of a fault arising in the microcontroller the relays are deactivated. <IMAGE>

Title: Spacers for use in hygienic absorbent articles and disposable absorbent articles having such spacer
Inventor: ALLEN PATRICK JAY
IPC: A61F13/494
Filed: 1993-06-04
Abstract: A spacer for use in a disposable absorbent article. The spacer is symmetric about a longitudinal axis and has two transversely oriented springs generally orthogonal to the longitudinal axis. The transversely oriented springs have different spring rates, so that transverse compression caused by the wearer's thighs may be readily accommodated, yet the spacer remain open to receive fecal material. The spacer may be advantageously used in a disposable absorbent article having a void space between the topsheet and the core, and maintain this void space under the weight of the wearer.

Patent AU-4597893-A (AU)
Title: Cellular concrete
Inventor: SPINNEY STEWART C
IPC: C04B28/02
Filed: 1993-05-27
Abstract: A more economical, stable, non-shrinking cellular concrete is provided by the addition of cementitious or non-cementitious fines to a cellular concrete mix. The improved cellular concrete is attained by reducing the amount of cement and replacing it with an equal amount of cementitious or non-cementitious fines. The partial replacement of the more expensive cement for the less expensive fines results in a more economical choice of cellular concrete suitable for use in structural applications, for insulation purposes, and for use in producing lightweight aggregate.

Inventor: CARROLL ROBERT E
IPC: B29C45/34
Filed: 1989-12-04
Abstract: An injection mold apparatus (10) having stationary and movable molding halves (15, 17). One ore more gas poppet valves (28) are affixed in the movable (17) and/or in the stationary (15) halves. The poppet valves (28) are located to open into a cavity (23) between the movable mold half (17) and the stationary mold half (15) when the mold halves are closed.

Title: An atomizer wheel for use in a spray drying apparatus
Inventor: JENSEN ARNOLD NORUP
IPC: B05B3/10
Filed: 1985-10-22
Abstract: An atomizer wheel for use in a spray drying apparatus comprises an interior annular liquid supply chamber (4), from which a number of substantially radial ejection ducts (8) extends towards the external surface of the wheel through a length constituting a considerable portion of the radius of the wheel. The ducts (8) discharge into a downwardly open annular discharge slit (10) at a comparatively short distance from an external wall (12) connected with a wheel cover (2) and whose inner wall surface (13) forms an axial-symmetrical surface of revolution with a substantially linear generatrix forming an angle of not more than 15° with the axis of revolution.The comparatively steep slit wall (13) ensures together with the large length of the ejection ducts (8) that the liquid is atomized at the outlet of the discharge slit (10) with a considerable downwardly directed axial velocity component so that the spray characterstics resemble those of nozzle atomization but with preservation of the general advantages with respect to flexibility and reliability of operation associated with wheel atomization.

Title: Sealing cable duct for screened cables

Filed: 1996-03-20
Abstract: PCT No. PCT/EP96/01212 Sec. 371 Date Sep. 11, 1997 Sec. 102(e) Date Sep. 11, 1997 PCT Filed Mar. 20, 1996 PCT Pub. No. WO96/30985 PCT Pub. Date Oct. 3, 1996The RF-proof cable penetration having a seal (9) for shielded cables, having a tubular threaded stub (7) which is to be inserted into a bore, and a locking nut (10) which is to be tightened onto the threaded stub, and having an annular clamping disk (8) which is forced, by a pinch seal (9) which is to be pressed on by the locking nut (10), against an annular shoulder on the threaded stub (7), is equipped according to the invention with a shielding sleeve (4) which has at least one radially projecting shoulder (6) at the front of the inner end. Furthermore, a stamping sleeve (5) is present which is to be pushed over the shielding sleeve (4) on the outside of the cable shield (3). In order to ensure a certain axial displaceability of the cable during mounting, the preassembled cable, provided with shielding sleeve (4) and mounted stamping sleeve (5), can be displaced axially relative to the threaded stub (7) owing to the fact that an annular shoulder has a continuous axial recess (12) in the interior of the threaded stub (7). By contrast with known EMC-capable cable threaded unions, the invention has the advantage that during the process of working the cable "fraying" of the shielding braid (3) is impossible on the cable, and parts of the shielding braid cannot break off, because co-rotation of the cable during tightening is prevented by latching the shielding sleeve (4) in the interior of the threaded stub (7). The time for mounting the cable can be substantially reduced.

Title: Refuse collecting and transporting system
Inventor: SCHILLER ROLF
IPC: B65F3/20
Filed: 2000-05-11
Abstract: The invention relates to a refuse collecting and transporting system comprising at least one side loading device for emptying single or multiple compartment refuse containers and comprising at least one fixed or exchangeable single or multiple compartment holding area container which has at least one force-actuated transporting means. Said transporting means actively deliver the refuse or fractions thereof, after they are emptied by a lifting/tilting device, to at least one holding area by means of another transporting device. This results in significantly shortening the working distance for the lifting/tipping device which serves to empty the refuse containers thus leading to improvements with regard to collection capacity and safety of the vehicle. The invention also relates to solutions for efficiently weighing refuse fractions, in particular, from multiple compartment refuse containers and to means which make it possible to empty refuse from holding areas more effectively.
